Scope1.1 This test method covers a technique for measuring theconcentration of Diethylene Glycol Monomethyl Ether (Di-EGME) in aviation fuels.Ameasured volume of fuel, extractedwith a fixed ratio of water, is tested with a suitable refracto-m

4、eter to determine the concentration of fuel system icinginhibitor (FSII) in fuel. Precision estimates have been deter-mined for the DiEGME additive using specific extraction ratioswith a wide variety of fuel types. The extraction ratios are highenough that portable handheld refractometers can be use

5、d, butnot so high as to sacrifice accuracy or linearity, or both, in the0.01 to 0.25 vol % range of interest.1.2 DiEGME is fully described in Specification D4171 andin other specifications.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in

6、thisstandard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Test Method4.1 In order to determine the concentration of DiEGME inaviation fuel, a measured volume of fuel is extracted with afixed ratio of water. The extraction procedure includes suffi-cient agi

12、tation and contacting time to ensure that equilibriumdistributions are attained. If using an Analog Refractometer,place several drops of water extract on the measuring surface,point it towards a light source, and take a reading on theinternal scale. The analog HB refractometer will display theactual

13、 percent volume of DiEGME on its scale. Users of a Brixrefractometer will follow a similar procedure, but will have toconvert the Brix reading into DiEGME percent volume. If theBrix refractometer is not automatically temperature compen-sated, then a temperature correction must first be applied to th

14、eBrix reading before converting it to percent DiEGME.

Significance and Use5.1 DiEGME is miscible with water and can be readilyext

19、racted from the fuel by contact with water during shippingand in storage. Methods are therefore needed to check theadditive content in the fuel to ensure proper additive concen-tration in the aircraft.5.2 This test method is applicable to analyses performed inthe field or in a laboratory.6.

Reagents and Materials7.1 WaterDistilled or deionized water is preferred for theextraction procedure, and for refractometer calibration, butpotable water may be used.8. Refractometer Calibration8.1 All refractometers should

26、be zero-set to water beforeuse. The exact procedure for zero-setting a refractometer variesbased on the type and make of instrument. Consult the usermanual for specific instructions on zero-setting each make ofrefractometer.8.2 The calibration step is incorporated into the procedure tominimize the e

27、ffect of temperature changes between the time ofcalibration and measurement. (WarningThe extraction, cali-bration, and measurement steps should be done at ambientconditions. Avoid placing the refractometer on hot or coldsurfaces, in pockets on your person, or other locations thatwould change the tem

28、perature of the instrument from ambient.When zero-setting or making a measurement, take care not toheat or cool the refractometer from ambient.)8.3 For the most accurate possible readings, the refractome-ter, the calibration fluid, and the ambient temperature should allbe in equilibrium within the t

29、emperature compensation range,or the operational temperature range, of the refractometer. Ifthere is a temperature disparity, allow some time for thetemperatures to equalize before taking a reading.9.

Sample Extraction10.1 Shake the extraction vessel vigorously for a minimumof 5 min for all fuels, preferably with the cap facing down.10.2 Mechanical shakers may be used, provided that thor-ough intermixing

32、of the aqueous and fuel phases occurs,similar to that obtained by hand shaking. (WarningFollowing the extraction procedures is most critical. Failure toextract for the specified time or failure to provide vigorousagitation can result in false readings. If lower than expectedreadings are obtained, a

33、second test should be done with alonger extraction time.)10.3 Allow the extraction vessel to sit undisturbed at ambi-ent temperature for a period of at least 2 min to allow the waterto settle to the bottom.3The analog HB refractometer and the digital HB2D refractometer are availablefrom Gammon Techn

37、er container, and then transferseveral drops to the prism face with a clean eyedropper, syringeor pipette.11.1.4 If a dropping bottle is used as an extraction vessel,place it right side up, remove the cap, squeeze slightly, andreplace the cap with the bottle under a slight vacuum. Invert thebottle a

38、nd allow the water extract to settle to the bottom. Uncapthe bottle and squeeze it gently until several drops of extractare collected on a tissue held in the same hand as therefractometer, and then allow several drops of the water extractto fall into the refractometer well.11.1.5 If using the MISCO

39、Jet Fuel Refractometer, close theevaporation cover to help prevent evaporation of the sampleduring testing.11.1.6 Allow some time for the temperature of the refrac-tometer, fluid, and ambient environment to equalize.11.1.7 Initiate the reading by pressing the “GO” Button onthe MISCO Jet Fuel Refract

41、.1.10 Record the reading on the refractometer digitaldisplay to two significant figures in volume percent DiEGME.11.1.11 Take four more readings of the same sample, andaverage the results.11.1.12 Properly dispose of test fluids, wash apparatus withsoap and water, and dry all items. (WarningTreat the

42、refractometer as an optical instrument and avoid damage to thelens and window elements. Store the refractometer in aprotective cover or case.)11.2 Measurement of Samples Using Analog HB or AnalogBrix Refractometers:11.2.1 Locate the thermometer and refractometer wherethey will remain at ambient temp
